This week, we celebrate joy—a deep, lasting joy that transcends circumstances. During Advent, we remember the joy of Jesus’s birth, which brought good news to all people: our Savior has come. His joy sustains and uplifts us, even in challenging times. "But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.'" — Luke 2:10 (NIV)

THE BEAUTY OF LIFE No doubt, life is truly beautiful and very sweet when we create positive impacts while living and letting others live. If you are not a solution dont be a problem. What a beautiful and inspiring message! I've highlighted the importance of living a life that positively impacts others and leaves a lasting legacy. Here are the key points: - Life is precious when we feel loved and welcomed by others. - Life is kind when we share what we have with others. - Life is perfect when our contributions make a difference in the lives of others. - Life is valued when we bring joy and smiles to others. - Life moves forward when others feel safe and supported by us. - We are either contributing to life or wasting our potential. - In your kingdom, you are measured by the lives you touch, not by material wealth. - You offer a heartfelt prayer for yourself and others to make a positive impact on humanity. - You end with a beautiful affirmation: "I receive grace to touch lives in my days in Jesus' name. Amen." This message encourages us to live selflessly, spread love and kindness, and leave a lasting legacy. Remember, our actions and contributions can make a significant difference in the lives of others! LIVE AND LETS LIVE Happy Sunday! #copied

Monday’s with Mike … VALUE OF FELLOW BELIEVERS - People gather to celebrate, support, and to be a collective part of many things. Whether it’s a sports team, a hobby, or for support. Ask someone who’s gone through AA. Ask someone who’s been at game supporting the home team, or a convention for any particular hobby. The sense of belonging encourages us whether you realize that or not. Even more is the fellowship of other believers. My men’s group supports, corrects, encourages, and enlightens me all the time. It’s an overwhelming world trying to navigate it on your own. Having Jesus Christ at the center of your life will never leave you feeling alone and being with other believers will support that. Become part of “a team” where the commonality is Christ Jesus. As it says in Hebrews 10:24-25 “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” Bring Jesus Christ into your life, attend a service with other believers, and accept the feeling of Christ growing in you and changing your life. You will encourage others as you are growing in Christlikeness. He loves you. Have a blessed week.

The Force of Gratitude. Ps.92:1-2; 1Thess.5:18; Ps.100:4; Php.4:6; Jn.6:10-13 Gratitude is a spiritual force! It is not just something you do. It is something you become. It is the winning attitude. It determines your altitude. It determines how far you can go in life. It determines your access to the power and presence of God. It determines your disposition, your well being and the richness and fulness of your life. It is one of the most transformative virtues of life. An ounce of gratitude will do more for you than a pound of courage... Learn More

Rise & Shine America! Today and every day, let us seize the opportunity to offer gratitude for our blessings. Let us contemplate the significance of praise. It is an act of expressing admiration and respect for others by recognizing their achievements and hard work. Blessings, on the other hand, involve wishing happiness and prosperity upon others. These two concepts hold the power to transform our lives and the lives of those around us when combined. We begin by expressing our heartfelt gratitude to God for His love, mercy, and provision. By bestowing praise and blessings upon Him, we acknowledge His sovereignty. Furthermore, acknowledging and encouraging one another boosts self-esteem and fosters a culture of positivity. This practice involves uplifting conversations, refraining from harmful gossip, embracing forgiveness, and sharing knowledge with humility. By doing so, we spread joy and show love, which is patient and kind. Remember, it costs nothing to offer praise when due and to offer criticism with care. May peace and love reign in our hearts, America! Peace & Love 💛💜✌🏽 #thursdaythoughts #praise #blessings #MsAmericasHomes

Choosing Joy 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 is a full sentence, but it’s packed full of powerful commands: Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Today, let’s look at just the first two words: Rejoice always. Consider the significance of the author, Paul’s, exhortation to “rejoice always.” This wasn’t a casual command but a testament to the enduring joy found in Christ—a joy without regard for life's unpredictable seasons. Choosing to rejoice isn’t about denying real suffering and pain. Choosing to rejoice is a deliberate decision to anchor our joy in the character and promises of our Heavenly Father and not life’s circumstances. To rejoice is a declaration of trust. Today, you face our own trials and uncertainties, large and small, draw strength from Paul’s words: “Rejoice always.” God is at work, shaping and sculpting your journey with purpose. Even when the purpose isn’t immediately evident, trust that He orchestrates every moment for your ultimate good. #HappyFriday #Weekend #Joy #Motivation
